15. Calculate the resistive forces acting on a sports car if it is travelling at a steady speed of 25 m/s when the engine is providing 200 kW. gnt V 10X50 - soot Grade 9 ​

8000 N

Explanation:

Applying

P = F×V Equation 1

Where P = Power of the sport car, F = resistive force acting on the sport car, V  = Speed of the sport car.

make F the subject of the equation

F = P/V Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 200 kW = 200000 W, V = 25 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

F = 200000/25

F = 8000 N
